In this paper, we consider a sum secrecy spectral efficiency (SE) maximization problem in a downlink rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) system with multiple antennas. We also assume two types of users: secret users whose private streams require information security and normal users whose private streams do not require security. Due to its max and min operations in the wiretap SE and the SE of the common stream, respectively, which makes the non-convex problem even non-smooth, solving the problem is highly challenging. To deal with the difficulties, we reformulate the optimization problem into an approximated smooth problem using a LogSumExp approach. Then, we identify the first-order optimality condition and develop formulas into a generalized eigenvalue problem. We use a power iteration based algorithm to find the best local optimal solution. Simulations validate the proposed secure RSMA precoding method.
